The protein, the main energy source in fish feed, when replaced by lipids and/or carbohydrates, provides a significant economic gain since the protein is converted into growth, instead of being consumed as an energy source. The metabolic capacity of the fish to utilize the nutrients ingested depends on the presence of enzymes, which are still poorly known. The understanding of the physiol…
Lipids are important source of energy in fish diets and its use spares the protein that can be allocated for growth rather than being consumed as an energy source. The vegetable meals and oils are considered the main alternative sustainable on replacement of fish meal and fish oil in aquaculture feed. However, this substitution may cause changes in the fatty acid (FA) profile of fish tiss…
In spite of the importance of oils as a source of energy and fatty acids required for normal fish growth and development, little attention has been paid in determining their digestibility for Brazilian freshwater fish. Vegetable oils are considered the main alternative sustainable in substitution of fish oil in feed for aquaculture. Therefore, the use of vegetable oils in fish diets shoul…
